ATTENTION 1960s NORTHERN SOUL,INSTRUMENTALS,DIRECTION LABEL AND 1960s SINGLES COLLECTORS!  HERE IS A 1ST UK 1968 PRESSING OF A PAIR OF SUPERB INSTRUMENTALS BY PRETTY PURDIE:"SOUL CLAPPIN" AND THE "B" SIDE IS A NORTHERN SOUL GEM:"BLOW YOUR LID(BUT WATCH YOUR COOL)". IT FAILED TO CHART IN THE UK AND USA-PROBABLY DELETED WITHIN A FEW WEEKS OF ISSUE. 

HERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY TO OWN AN ORIGINAL 1ST UK ISSUE ON THE CBS PRESSED DIRECTION LABEL:58-3628.

THIS IS A COPY THAT HAS HAD A FEW PLAYS WITH SOME LIGHT,WISPY SURFACE MARKS BUT NO DEEP MARKS,NO STICKS OR JUMPS OR LOUD SURFACE SWISHES. THERE IS HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE! PLAYS SUPERBLY! BRILLIANT FOR A VINYL DJ OR A SOUL/R&B THEMED JUKEBOX!.

SERIOUSLY AND STRICTLY GRADED AS NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION BUT MOST DEALERS WOULD HAPPILY STATE EXCELLENT! PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS TO OBSERVE THE VERY CLEAN LABELS WITH NO STAINING,STICKERS,FADING OR WRITING AND THE FOUR PRONG CENTRE IS FULLY INTACT! THICK AND 100% FLAT VINYL

HOUSED IN AN ORIGINAL DIRECTION COVER WITH A FEW SMALL TEARS AND CREASES BUT DIRECTION COVERS ARE HARD TO COME BY AND I REFUSE TO USE REPRODUCTIONS!   IT COULD WELL BE YOUR LAST OPPORTUNITY TO ADD THIS RECORD TO YOUR COLLECTION! 

 A LOW,REALISTIC STARTING PRICE OF £5 AND THE WINNING BIDDER WILL GET A PROMPT AND SOLID PARCEL SO BID WITH TOTAL CONFIDENCE.
